As the demand for high-quality care continues to rise, recruiting for healthcare is becoming increasingly important, as care and residential homes across the UK are constantly looking for ways to improve their services for residents. One area that is often overlooked is the quality of agency staff that are brought in to support permanent employees.
Here at Medilink Nursing we offer an excellent solution to this problem, recruiting for healthcare staff can be a long and daunting task at a time when your time can, and should, be better off spent elsewhere. We provide highly trained healthcare assistants and nurses who are fully equipped to support care and residential homes and need no further training or time to adapt to your way of working. Our agency staff know just what to do, when you need them to do it.
Here are just a few of the reasons you should be using Medilink Nursing for your agency staffing needs in 2023 and beyond.
Quality Staff
We believe that when it comes to recruiting for healthcare, only the best will do! That’s why we only employ highly trained, experienced, and reliable healthcare assistants, ensuring that your residents receive the best possible care. All our staff are fully trained and up-to-date with the latest care practices and vitally, they have an up-to-date DBS Check. This means you can be confident that they will provide a high standard of care to your residents, whilst making sure that you stay compliant with CQC regulations.
Flexibility
Providing flexible staffing solutions to care, and residential homes is our speciality. This means that you can choose when and how often you need agency staff, making it easy to adjust your staffing levels based on the needs of your residents and cover staffing shortages if, and when they arise. We can offer temporary staff that will cover just one shift, or we can provide block bookings of staff. Whatever your needs, we can meet them.
Communication
Here at Medilink Nursing we believe that communication is key. You can tell us exactly what you are looking for, and armed with this knowledge, we will be able to provide you with Healthcare Assistants or Nursing staff that fit your needs and can immediately get to work. We are always here to answer your queries or help fulfil your staffing needs 365 days a year. Since we’ve already gone through the process of recruiting for healthcare, we know how important it is to get exactly what you need.
Cost-effective
Using agency staff used to be seen as an unnecessary expense, which isn’t true. At Medilink Nursing we have proved time and time again that high-calibre, well-trained, caring staff who can cover last minute shifts or provide one-to-one care for your residents can actually be a cost-effective way of managing your staffing issues easily. With our experience of recruiting for healthcare, it’s easier than ever to maintain staffing levels in a way that works for you and your residents.
